Is this possible? I want to send a text message to my husband's LG phone (he has Net10 prepaid service) using my iPad2. But looks like iMessage only works between Apple products? I sent a text to my niece but she has an iPhone. Is there another App I can get?

You should be able to with the Talkatone app. I have not sent a text message using it so don't know how it works. I installed it so I could make free long distance calls to people without an iPhone, iPad etc. using Google Talk. Here is a link on their FAQ's. http://www.talkatone.com/faq.html

Basic Talkatone product is free. Wherever you can find data connection you can make a call or send a text message. In order to get most out of Talkatone you need to have Google Voice Account and setup Google services.

If your iPad is only WiFi enabled then you cannot send a text to a non-Apple product. However, as someone suggested above, there are apps you can download for free to use your WiFi data to text.

I use IM+ (I have the paid version, but there is a free version) that allows you to connect to chat services like Gmail chat, AIM (AOL Instant Messenger), Facebook chat, etc. and you can add mobile numbers to those services.
